Sagittaron is the bitch of the Twelve Colonies of Man. For centuries the inhabitants of Sagittaron were treated like serfs, and forced to down the dirtiest and dangerous work for the other colonies.

This episode proves beyond any shadow of a doubt there is a new contender for the throne of Sci-Fi TV. This episode was filled with Religion, sex, violence, drama, drama, and more drama. So hold on, ’cause here we go!

This is likely one of the best first episodes in sci fi history. If you’re a die-hard original series fan, hoping that new series will falter and prove to be an embarrassment for all involved: now is the time to give up all hope.

A bit of a plodding episode and not up to the usual standards (re storyline).

Litmus doesn’t feature any space battles, fist fights, or even shouting. And despite this, there is still a heavy tension through most of the episode. More than enough to make this a excellent and memorable episode to watch.
